new ventures

recently at work i was approached by a recent Yale grad about helping him design/plan/execute the interior of his shop across the street. 
his products - furniture made from triple-thick cardboard. chairigami.com 
one less empty storefront for the city! updates will follow as the opening date draws nearer.

rejoice!
new haven 4th most dangerous city in the US. i have yet to feel this negative statistic's presence in town. i make where i live (to a certain extent... a line has to be drawn. would you live in Flint, MI?)

quick sketch of the UO summer windows. (the two on left are options for that window. we'll be going with the bottom one) furthermore, i get to draw on the actual glass of the windows. bam.

slats, sweeping, air & some opacity

Um, this happened at work.

settling into my new town. where poverty exists butted up against an ivy league's campus.
a new, fresh routine of coffee-work-create-vent-coffee. i might like it here.

to the city
new haven -> grand central station. 1.5 hrs.
greeted by an old friend, whisked off to brooklyn -- to a commune on the top floor of a converted industrial structure. weekend dominated by pizza, walking, coffee, gin, hipster-watching. basta con las barbas!
